About Us
James and I are beyond ecstatic to be your hosts at Two Inlets Resort. We moved to Two Inlets Resort after living in the Twin Cities for the past 13 years where we worked to accumulate various resorting skills and had Jameson (6) & Hadley (2), but knew we wanted to get closer to the outdoors.
We are grateful for the wisdom of the previous owners of Two Inlets Resort, Bob and Jennifer Bateman, as we enter our second season as owners (& 3rd season at the resort), as well as appreciative of our guests entrusting us to continue the traditions that have been built here. Our number one goal these past couple years was to listen and observe how Two Inlets Resort ticks, how it fills up our guests and how our guests breathe life into it. In many ways we heard our guests say that they love that it hasn’t changed since they were young. The traditions and values have always remained. In a world where change is constant, we want to be a refuge of rest, fun, and a place to reconnect—with yourself and others.
We’ve come to understand what you love so much about Two Inlets—the cabins, sunsets, loons, and so much beauty connecting with the friends and family you bring along. Jameson and Hadley have made the resort their home and are already living their best lives. James and I are confident we will keep Two Inlets Resort one of your favorite places to vacation.
Together James and I want to carry on Two Inlet Resort’s values, ensuring you enjoy coming back year after year just as you always have.
If we haven’t had the opportunity to meet you yet, we’d love to get the chance!
Thank you,
Kayla & James Daigle,
Jameson & Hadley

Meet our 2020 Team
We are so excited to welcome our staff back this year! We wanted to add a few more to our team to ensure your needs are met above anything else! Meet our team, ready to jump in and make your stay delightful! Get to know them here.
We also are welcoming our expert cleaning crew back, all who were with us in our previous season. They are so ready to up their already high cleaning standards to ensure you all can relax & enjoy your stay. We have all of our favorites including Renee, Brian, Kaaren, Rian, & Brenna all joining us again!
Anna ┋ Kid Whisperer + Jill-of-all-Trades
We have the honor of welcoming Anna for her third season with us! She’s our favorite ever & the kids absolutely love her! We all took a deep sigh of relief, then jumped with excitement when we found out she was coming back!
Anna is finishing up her senior year at Perpich Arts High School, although now finishing closer to us than she expected. This year looks really different than what she had ever planned for her senior year. We are so lucky to have her early & our lives our brighter with her in it! Here’s an amazing interview of her from her school.
I asked her to share a couple fun facts, “I love music; I can play four different instruments, & I like to think that I can dance after going to an arts school.” Yes Anna, you can dance, and four instruments…what!? We beg her to teach the kids to dance & how to play the ukulele on a weekly basis.
Gabe ┋ Paraprofessional + Lumberjack + Utility Player
If you were here over the weekends last year, you probably got to meet Gabe, or Mr. Gabe as his students call him. We’re excited to have him back and can’t wait to hear all about his music, book, and movie recommendations!
We get to enjoy Gabe early, coming from Northeast Minneapolis (originally from Alexandria) for the summer, currently helping his students from Cabin 10 by day, and helping us prep for the season by night. We go back 10ish years with Gabe, previously going to the same college, church, our favorite babysitter in the cities, & even working together for about three years prior to moving to the resort.
His favorite resort task is hauling wood with the golf cart, especially during the “golden hour, when the sun is the strongest and the lake sparkles.” His favorite author is Stephen King, but he’s also “ready to branch out.” We ask that you don’t judge him by his music critiques. Gabe is a kind heart, respectful to every living soul. If our kids learn one thing this summer, we’d love them to observe how they are treated by Gabe & how he treats others.
We’re so excited to have them all here this summer! Get to know them & ask them for help at anytime.
